The Book Club

I took a test on Saturday! I can't remember the last time I took a test! My dear Roz is our book club leader and she has determined that in order for us to retain what we read, it is necessary for her to give the book club members (Esther and me) periodical tests! Yikes!!!

I thought I had done quite well with my test. I remembered most of the material she quizzed us on, but I was to discover that more was required from us! If my answers weren't written in complete sentences with proper punctuation, I lost points! Needless to say, my score was less than desired. I guess I've forgotten the rules for test taking!

We are reading Nancy Drew's "The Secret of the Old Clock". Roz and I usually meet on Skype and read to each other. Roz loves to add expression to her reading, so in the span of a few minutes I hear an old man, a young girl, a singer, a lawyer, an old lady and Nancy herself telling the story to me. What fun.

We also celebrated Esther's birthday a little early -Wednesday is the official day - with yummy supper, carrot cake, candles and presents! Thanks Joyce

Late Saturday night, I panicked - I hadn't turned the heat on at Dad's house yet! I called Curt at 11:00pm to see if I needed to head out right away. He thought it would be fine til morning. I didn't sleep very good, so was up and out the door early. When I arrived, it was 44 degrees in the house, and like both George and Curt said, things were fine.

Last night, I went to our church and participated in a discussion of prophecy and end times. It's always so interesting to see what scripture says on these topics and from there over to the Baptist church for their fall festival. Caught up on all the local news over pie and coffee!

This morning snow is falling ever so softly, the trees are white and I'd like to curl up with my book and read all day. To be honest, I might do some of that, but there are errands to be run before, so I best get going.
